Will you be able to post the installation insturctions on the web site? Also does anyone have a dealership in NJ that they would use for the installation? I have been using Flemington BMW and have been very happy with their service, but I do not believe that they have installed any performance packages so far on either z8's or Alpina's.

Received an email today from BMW NA that the Alpina PP is now available in the U.S. The part number that was given to me differs slightly from the post above, but I believe it is just a number reversal on someone's part. I will try to finalize which one is correct. This is the number that was provided to me by BMW is
31 33 0 432 173. The numbers in bold are the ones in question.

Alpina Z8 PP in stock

I have the parts in stock for the Alpina Z8 Performance package. I expect to be doing one soon. I will let you all know the outcome and if it takes any longer. (I don't really see it taking longer though.)

I am dropping my Alpina off for the Performance Package installation tomorrow evening. As I will be away for a week at Kiawah I plan on leaving it at the dealer so that they can focus on the install when they have plenty of time. Once I get back I will post pictures of the finished installlationl so that people can see how it looks on an Alpina.

We performed our first Alpina Performance package a few days ago. Absolutely no problems. The install is identical to the Z8 with the exception of the different airbox brackets part# 31-33-0-432-173. Install time is the same as the published time for Z8's (8.5 hours)

You beat me to the pictures. Mine looks exactly the same. I paid $649 for parts and only $546 for labor on the install, plus $129 for a four wheel alignment once they were done, for a total of $1,324. I used Flemington BMW in Flemington NJ. They have been great everytime that I have used them. This was the first PP that they have installed, but it went off with out a hitch. The contact that I have used is Jim Hierl at 908 824 9914
